| About The Walking Shoe Revival |
The Walking Shoe Revival came about in early 2001 when drummer Brad Clark and singer/guitarist Eddy Dyer were introduced by Lawrence artist Che Arrajj. That year, Eddy had released his second solo album, Butterfly Medicine, a glorious mess of acoustic psychadelia...Clark, a veteran of both hip-hop and grindcore acts (including a stint with the now legendary Disrupt), had always been a fan of Donovan and the Beatles, and gravitated towards the more obscure stylings of Eddy's world, bringing those songs somewhere
unthought of before with his distinctive, heavy tribal signature. Along with Chris Drosdic on bass guitar, Katie Donovan on vocals and percussion, Bonnie Rovics on flute, Eddy Dyer and the Walking Shoe Revival began to record their first, self-titled CD at After Midnight Studios with producer Jeff Hall at the helm.
Soon after finishing his bass tracks, Drosdic relocated to the west coast - enter the great Van Lawton. After seeing Van perform at the Gaelic Club in Lowell, Eddy set out to stalk Lawton until he agreed to be the band's new bass player. The plan ended up working, and Van, in addition to vocal contributions to the disc-in-progress, would re-define the sound of the band, his bass serving as a lead instrument.
In September, 2004, Eddy Dyer and the Walking Shoe Revival was released,, though, eager not to stagnate, the band welcomed percussionist/vocalist Derek O'Sullivan and guitarist/pianist Ed Newton, both of the ambient acoustic music act simply known as Untitled.
Together, this new lineup has been blowing the roofs and doors out of any events they appear at, playing throughout Massachusetts, New Hampshire and elsewhere in New England.
The band has also begun recording it's sophomore effort, tentatively titled Teardrops Made of Melted Crayons, which promises to bring the band into a more tribal, psychadelic sonic realm.
